Fans of ‘Station 19’ were left with quite a cliffhanger at the end of Episode 8. Travis (Jay Hayden) walked in on his best friend Vic (Barrett Doss) in an intimate moment with Theo (Carlos Miranda) the firefighter who Travis blames for his husband Michael’s death. Travis has till this point, been unaware that there were any feelings brewing between the two. The timing couldn’t have been worse for Vic, who had actually gone to meet Theo simply to tell him that she couldn’t take the relationship with him further because her loyalties would always lie with Travis. Theo then tells her that Michael’s death didn’t just destroy Travis, it destroyed Theo’s life too. Vic who clearly still is battling her feelings for Theo reached out to comfort him and that precise moment is when Travis walks in.
Not surprisingly he feels totally betrayed and we see in the trailer of the upcoming episode Vic asking how she can throw so many years of friendship away.
‘Station 19’ Season 4 Episode 8: Who is the mystery girl comforting Carina after Andrew DeLuca’s death?
We’re guessing Vic wishes she had taken Dean’s (Okieriete Onaodowan) advice to tell Travis about her feelings earlier. Dean had advised her to explain to Travis that when she and Theo started developing an attraction, she didn’t even know who he was. But now it’s perhaps too late for that and fans can’t believe they’ve been left with an episode ending like this.
One fan tweeted, “NO WAY IT JUST ENDED UP LIKE THIS”. For some fans, this storyline is giving them more stress than they can handle. One fan tweeted, “I don’t like this storyline, and IMHO it goes against everything we’ve to know about Vic’s character. Theo causes Travis pain, that should be a dealbreaker
Other fans have theories that maybe Theo is being unfairly blamed. One fan tweeted, “I just wanna know how Michael died cause I have some weird feeling it wasn’t really this Theo dudes complete fault… and also no offence but Travis “we don’t let people die” Um Jack literally is the reason Rigo died?”
Will there be some new information in the coming episodes that clears Theo in some way? Will Travis at some point realize that it was timing and circumstances that were the real enemy here and not Vic? Will Travis also be able to look through the pain of his loss and see the truth that his husband Michael worked in a dangerous job as a firefighter and that Theo has also paid for this loss?
